What Makes a Good Multivitamin?

A healthy diet is the best foundation for health, but if everyday life makes that goal challenging, multiple vitamin–mineral supplements (“multivitamins”) can offer handy, disease-fighting and deficiency-fixing nutrient combinations. Common products include:

• Low-potency/one-a-day multiples: Usually contain 100% of the vitamins and minerals most people need, though not enough to make up for deficiencies or other therapeutic amounts.
• High-potency multiples: Mixtures providing higher amounts of desired nutrients to support particular health goals, such as heart health.
• Vegetarian: Most capsules are made from animal gelatin, so vegetarians need to carefully read supplement labels.
